Penn State Public Broadcasting is producing a documentary that will chronicle THON, the largest student-run philanthropy in the world. For the Kids: Penn State's Dance Marathon will follow students balancing classes, homework and exams while maintaining a tireless commitment to THON. The 60-minute television program will document this yearlong undertaking -- beginning with the selection of the overall committee, and culminating on that magical weekend in February. To watch a trailer of the documentary, go to http://www.wpsu.org/thondocumentary online.

A picture-and-word exhibit in the HUB-Robeson Center this week aims to show how philanthropy has shaped such Penn State traditions as THON, the Blue Band, and the Nittany Lion Shrine. The exhibit, sponsored by the Student Philanthropy Council (SPC), will be on display through Friday, Feb. 27, on the first floor of the HUB. In addition, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Friday, members of the SPC will be on hand as part of this month's Philanthropy Phriday event to discuss with students the impact of philanthropy to Penn State.
